About 10 days ago, this young Nigerian rapper and singer, Olanrewaju Pelepele shared an emotional video online talking about how depressed he was and his plans to take his own life.
At the time, he was not taken seriously and now, he has made good on his promise and has taken his life.
He did not go by the philosophy of his name: ‘Pelepele’ which means ‘be careful, do it with caution, gently and slowly’
He was found stone cold dead in his apartment on Friday, September 20, 2019.
His death stems from his long battle with depression and his inability to fully break into the Nigerian music industry despite 10 years of hard work.
